Commissioner Pratt On llaitnna
Lund.
June 2, Laud t Commissioner
Pratt sent the following communi
cation to the Committee on Agri
culture at the meeting of the Board
of Agriculture and Forestry' at the
Government nursery on King
street recently; as will be seen the
letter reates to the opportunity in
these Islands of securing land for
the purpose of banana growing:
You of course know that the
lands above Hilo are producing a
fine crop of bananas, but the
growers appear to be at the mercy
of the California Fruit Growers,
Union (I think that is their title),
and I am told that these California
people handle the market to suit
themselves and that the Hawaiian
banana grower must take their
prices or, if the shipment is of any
extent, go outside of the State for
a market.
We have many leases falling in
soon, all along the Hamakua coast,
and so will have much land avail-'
able for banana culture. Theyalue
of the land runs from 54 per acre
for land not cleared to $100 or $125
per acre for land that has been
cleared.'
The cost of clearing averages
about"$8o per acre. This land can
be taken up under the various con
dition of our law, the amount being
600 ncres on time payment, and
1000 acres on cash sales. How
ever, you are familiar with our
laws and I need not repeat the con
ditions. We have smaller patches or rem
nants at various places about the
islands that would grow fine
bananas for instance 1 hope to
open up several hundred acres in
Palolo valley, but in this case I
would' like to settle this land in
small portions, just enough for the
ordinary family to haudle. You
see I am back to the fact that I
don't know how much your, corres
pondent wants to haudle. I find
this difficulty with nearly all those
who inquire about our lauds a
man wants to go into the cattle
business, another wants laud to
support angora goats, another to
raise coffee or pines, and I always
have to ask them how much land
they can haudle before I can give
them location and prices.
No Records Kept.
Honolulu, June 2. It is said
that the exact amount of the alleged
shortages in the office of the Laud
Commissioner may never be known,
owing to the non-entry of minor
fees for copying of records, deeds
aud leases.
All leaseholders are being com
municated with and shown the
amounts outstanding against them
with a request to present back re
ceipts should they not agree with
the territorial bookkeeping.
Until this is concluded neither
the Auditor nor Commissioner Pratt
can state what the defalcation may
or may not be.
Plans are being laid to provide
for a check against the possibilities
I of receiving minor fees
entry, but no satisfactory
without
scheme
hag yet been evolved.
